Chapter 538: Returning the Favor

ain Villa is my elder sister."So, what does Master Zhen meanWhat they're looking for is the wealth that the Wang family gave to my sister. These things should have belonged to you originally."Me What...To ease the tension between father and son, Evan agreed to bring Emilio along. He also wanted to find an opportunity to help the rhino get rid of the unknown power, something he confided in Conner privately. Though he couldn't be heir, Emilio was still part of the Rhoden family.

Along the way, Emilio was quite well-behaved and humbly asked Evan many questions about magic. However, whenever it came to anything about Lian, he became unusually restless.

After hearing Emilio's roundabout explanation, Evan didn't say much. Instead, he addressed David:

"After we rest for half a day, tomorrow you will help me completely seal off this spatial passage."

"Yes! Thank you for giving us the opportunity to learn."

David happily agreed and then told the other three high mages the good news. They all tacitly decided not to disturb Master Evan, but instead started preparing in a more distant location.

"Elder Two, can I participate this time too"

"This time you can observe, but you cannot participate. You are only a mid-level mage, there is a gap between you and the high-level mages. In case of an emergency, you wouldn't be able to handle it."

Eve resolutely refused. This wasn't something to experiment with. If it were a normal practice, failing meant trying again. But this was about sealing a spatial passage; it wasn't child's play. Therefore, she didn't agree.

But Lian can do it, he's even worse than me, why

Emilio said in a low voice, clearly unwilling to accept it.

Evan's violet eyes narrowed, his voice turning cold:

"Can you summon lightning elements"

“

” Let me know if you'd like to translate more text!

Now it's Emilio's turn to shell, at his current magical level he can summon five elements, but the most powerful lightning element he cannot summon or control.

"Then just observe quietly and learn from the experience."

After Evan finished speaking, he sat down on the ground and then called David and several others over to discuss the magic circle they would be using.

Emilio clenched his fists, unwillingly sat on a rock in the distance, still thinking about what the second elder had said.

"Young Master, don't overthink it. I also looked into the Memory Crystal. What Young Master Lian called summoning lightning elements was merely relying on a sword with lightning properties. If you had such a sword, you would definitely be able to do it as well."

Kenny soothed Emilio in a low voice.

"You're right! He's nothing special, just relying on a lightning-type sword. There's nothing to be proud of; I could do the same thing."

Kenny's words really struck a chord with him. Emilio, who had also seen the Memory Crystal, recalled it carefully and became even more confident. Because in addition to the lightning-attribute sword, there was also Leah's water magic circle assisting, otherwise such an effect would not have been achieved.

"Young Master, I will send a message home and ask them to be on the lookout for swords of the thunder attribute when they go out. I will also help find one for you."

Kenny's home naturally belongs to the Kenny family.

"Good!"

Since people were worried about him, Emilio was naturally happy, but he didn't think that things like falling from the sky and landing in your lap don't happen!

The ripples of being remembered, along with Coralia's family, had reached the city of Palor after five days of travel.

Looking at the towering city wall before her, and the knights passing by with their insignia, Ripple felt an overwhelming sense of ferocity. This was the fighting spirit that belonged to knights.

Grey rode his silver steed forward, stepping closer to Ripple and Leia.

"We're in luck, this year happens to be the time for the Knightly Rank Evaluation held every five years, so there are a lot of knights here. It's best to find lodging first, otherwise we'll have to camp outside."

Okay, listen to Grey!

The ripple nodded in agreement.

Goliya and her family exchanged a few words with them, then proactively invited them:

"Master Lian, Miss Lyra, thank you for your help along the way. My mother has relatives in Palor City. If you don't mind, you can temporarily stay at my mother's family castle. It is not far from Palor City, a two-hour round trip is completely fine."

After a glance between Ripple and Leia, they accepted Coralia's offer:

"Okay, then we won't be polite! We'll trouble you for a while."

"This is an honor for our family."

Gallia smiled and said.

The accommodation is settled, so ripples let Laiye register herself into the city first and confirm her date for the assessment. She can use the remaining time to prepare and seek guidance from the Grey Knight.

Thus, everyone excitedly made their way to the ancient castle where Lady Lillian and her family resided. Since Lady Lillian had arranged for guards to notify her relatives beforehand, a crowd of people gathered at the castle gate upon their arrival, seemingly there to welcome them.

As expected, once they dismounted from their horses and carriage, they were warmly invited into the ancient castle. Lilian's elder brother, Hassan White, personally arranged a grand banquet to welcome them, and thoughtfully prepared accommodations for Ripple and her five companions.

During the conversation, Lian discovered that Lady Lillian's family was also a second-rate family. It took several generations of hard work to build this ancient castle.

They developed their way through commerce, selling herbs, weapons, books, and food. Anything that was allowed to be sold, they would sell it, and then use the gold earned to nurture their people. In this way, they grew stronger step by step.

It would be a great honor to have connections with the renowned Rhoden family, something they deeply desire. When Ripple learned of this, she had some thoughts and proactively initiated a conversation with Hassan.

Hassen wouldn't dare underestimate the ripple effect. As the son of the Rhoden family, simply showing closeness to the White family was already a huge boost.

"Mr. Hasen, does your family's trade extend across the entire magical continent"

"It's hard to say exactly where we are, after all, we are only a second-rate family. But our White family mainly develops in the Western Continent. We also visit other three continents' major cities, just with longer intervals."

Hasan White smiled and explained that although he didn't know what interests this Young Master Lian had, he still patiently answered the other party's questions.

"The White family must have received a lot of information during the process of running their business."

Ripples spoke directly.

"Yes, with more places to go, you naturally hear some different news."

The other day, I was invited by the Rodman family to attend a roundtable discussion about the recent increase in visions and the need for us to deliver messages.

Hasan immediately understood the key point in Ripples' words and followed up with what the other party said.

Ripple's purple eyes flickered after hearing this, and a smile appeared on her face. It seemed the original owner's father valued the information provided by his son and had already begun making arrangements in advance. This made her feel like the burden on her shoulders had lightened considerably.

After some more casual conversation, Lianyi and Ripples went to rest. After a good night's sleep, the next day Lianyi and Leah went to Palor City for a stroll, leaving Goliya and the others space to communicate.

Liliana took Coralia to see their eldest brother, Hasan, and told him about what had happened with Simon's scheme.ion, so I stopped by to bring him over."Because Master Wan Tian was anxious about the situation here, I brought him over as quickly as possible and saw if I could help.Ruyan wore a calm expression and...
